Why read it?

1 author picked Blood Covenant as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The warmth between the family - while not being at all saccharine - against the cold brutality of the criminal gang - especially the severely disturbed ring leader - make for tension you can cut with a knife and that's before the supernatural elements kick in.
The ingredients of this book seem like too much for a single tome and story, but Baxter masterfully fuses them all together and the result is breathtaking.
